Mars Square Neptune Archives - Lynn Hayes astrology readings and writings

Christina Applegate and the astrology of Multiple Sclerosis

Longtime readers of this blog know that I have a special interest in the way the astrological chart reveals energy patterns which are associated with disease, and one way that this manifests is through what I call “Mars Problems.” Mars represents our drive and ability to take action, as well as the way we handle anger and frustration. When Mars is repressed or in a detrimental situation in the chart, we often find health problems such as digestive issues or immune problems.

I first wrote about this back in 2012 when I had a client with Multiple […]

The astrology of David Beckham

I know nothing about football (or soccer as we ignorant Americans call it!) and I knew even less about David Beckham until I watched the Netflix series about him. I AM fascinated by what drives people towards his level of success and the astrological indicators that reveal so much about the personality.

David Beckham was exceptionally skillful on the field, but his good looks and charismatic personality has made him extremely marketable. His marriage to Victoria, a former Spice Girl, certainly didn’t detract from his celebrity status. According to the Netflix series though, that celebrity status may […]

Planetary news this week: Virgo Full Moon, and Saturn in Pisces

Astrological update for the week of March 6-13, 2023.

art by Verena Wild

Full Moon in Virgo March 7th. The Virgo Full Moon on Tuesday (EST) occurs with Saturn at the 29th degree of Aquarius, just about to spill into Pisces. The Virgo Moon is the only personal planet in an Earth sign, and with three planetary bodies in the mystical watery sign of Pisces it may be difficult to ground into the practical realm of life for the next few days. If that occurs, the best thing […]

Sunday inspiration: The power of language

Mars is retrograde in Gemini, the sign of language and communication as well as the assimilation of our experiences through thought. Mars is in a challenging square aspect to dreamy Neptune right now which can be confusing, but it also offers an opportunity to use language to generate magic.

In my practice I am often gifted with the opportunity to help a client find a new direction in their lives, and often this comes through words. For example, in 2012 I posted an article about a reading with a client who had […]

Astrological news this week: Post eclipse optimism

Astrological update for the week of November 14-21, 2022

Post-eclipse wrapup. In my monthly Planetary Illuminations report for November (see the subscription form in the sidebar) I wrote that the total lunar eclipse on November 8th would have two segments: the dark time before the eclipse and the light time after the eclipse. I wrote “Eclipses aren’t inherently dangerous, but they are usually portals through which difficult truths may emerge. The lunar eclipse on November 8th conjoins the North Node of the future, suggesting […]

Planetary news this week: The end of the Saturn/Uranus square

Astrological update for the week of October 10-17, 2022

Saturn square Uranus: The final hurrah. We are in the final stages of the challenging square from Saturn (compression) to Uranus (rebellion) – the planetary cycle of 2021 which promoted so much civil unrest and overreaction. Although this is not an exact aspect (the two planets are 39 minutes of a degree apart and will begin to wane, we will likely continue to see the final stages of reactionary behavior well into November.

When two planets are in a square aspect to each […]

Astrological forecast for the week of January 10, 2022: Mercury retrograde and a Plutonic Full Moon

art by Agnieszka Szalabska

This week we actually have two planets changing direction: Mercury will turn retrograde on January 14th, and Uranus turns direct January 18th after being retrograde for the past six months or so. Mercury and Uranus are related symbolically as they both are involved in processes of the intellect: Mercury rules the small mind – the day to day thoughts and information that filter through our intelligence and inform our world, and Uranus is associated with the higher mind which translates information from multilevel dimensions of […]

Astrological update for the week of January 3, 2022 – A bit of planetary R&R

art by Lindy Longhurst

I may have neglected to mention last week that yesterday’s Capricorn New Moon was a SuperMoon, and today here on the East Coast of the US we are enjoying the meteorological effects. We are under a heavy influence of Saturn currently – not only do we have the waning energies of the Saturn-ruled Capricorn New Moon, but six planetary bodies are ruled by Saturn right now: Sun, Venus, Moon and Pluto in Capricorn, and Mercury in Aquarius along with Saturn itself. Saturn demands accountability and […]

4.9.21 A Piscean day to go with the flow

There are quite a few Piscean themes today, not the least of which is a challenging square from Mars in Gemini to Neptune in Pisces. Neptune is the modern ruler of Pisces, so it is already quite strong in the sign of spiritual magic and the unfolding mysteries of consciousness. It’s not all light and fairy dust however – Neptune in Pisces at its worst can bring confusion and deception, and the kind of dissolution of facts and reality which we have witnessed over the past few years.
